Trump’s Project 2025 Just Hit the Gas—And Your Government Just Hit the Brakes

Trump’s Project 2025 Just Hit the Gas—And Your Government Just Hit the Brakes

Welp, it’s happening. Project 2025 isn’t just a theory anymore—it’s in motion. Trump’s team just hit pause on almost all government spending (except Medicare and Medicaid), and if you’re wondering, “Wait, can he even do that?” the answer is no, but that’s never stopped him before.

Congress is supposed to control federal spending, but Trump’s administration is treating the budget like a Netflix account they refuse to pay for.

Who’s Behind This?

Meet Russ Vought, Trump’s former budget director and one of the brains behind Project 2025. He used to work for the Heritage Foundation, and if he gets Senate approval for Trump’s cabinet, he’ll have even more control over federal funds. And by ‘control,’ I mean he’ll be playing a game of ‘fund what we like, starve what we don’t.’

Why This Is a Big Deal

Federal agencies are now in financial limbo—meaning delays, cuts, and bureaucratic chaos across the board.

This spending freeze is step one of Project 2025’s bigger plan: strip Congress of its power and let the president call the financial shots.

There’s a law called the Impoundment Control Act, passed after Nixon, to prevent exactly this kind of stunt. But since when has following laws been a thing for this crowd?

What Happens Next?

Programs you rely on? Might get slashed.

Federal workers? Could be told to pack up.

Congress? Watching their job get taken over in real time.

And the wildest part? The same people who screamed about ‘government overreach’ are now cheering for a single man to control all the money.

So yeah, Project 2025 is here. And if you thought this was just political fan fiction, congratulations—you’re now living in the plot twist.
